How do you get going again after pregnancy?
There's a mums running club on Tuesday afternoons in Battersea park which is run by physiotherapists, there's always a small number of us so we tend to get a lot of individual teaching. It's £6 a session and has a strengthening aspect as well as running technique.
I'll try and find their website to post.
Amy x
hope J ok today, cc. not what you need!
i am obsessing about this job and logistics of childcare if i got it. as assistant director, i don't think getting in at 9.45 and sloping off at 5 would go down too well... and what about the holidays?! having said that, i probably won't even get an interview...
just done a 6 mile hilly walk. lungs aren't as bad as they were yesterday after my much shorter walk. i just want to run again. today is soooooo beautiful too.
right - time for some work.
EF - i doubt it. it's a pretty senior role with all the staff reporting to it from the IT dept, so i think it will be a case of actually needing to be on site during normal operational hours. i will ask though - if i get as far as an interview.
the main problem will be that even working normal 9 - 5 hours on the days the kids are with me will be a push for me with the traffic / parking in cardiff. before school club opens at 8 and after school till 6. so i would need the kids in there 8 - 6 every day just to work a 9 - 5 job and i imagine that they will be expecting more than just 9 - 5 from me in that kind of role.
on the days the kids are with T - weds / thurs every week and every other friday, i can work unlimited hours. but that is only 5 out of every 10 school days (and on 2 of those days i need to do the school run so can't get in early) and that may not be enough. there are only 3 out of 10 days when i can get in early and leave really late.
CM - whilst it's good to weigh this sort of thing up beforehand so you can think of what you need to ask in the interview, I also wouldn't stress too much about it all yet. Get to the interview first and get the vibe as to whether you'd even want to work for them first ...
Maybe getting out yesterday got your chest functioning in again? I'd stick with the walking though, no point in overdoing it and ending up back where you started. No harm in some fresh air and especially sunshine at this time of year!
Great run done - legs felt fantastic which makes a change and won't last I am sure. So 8 miles done, a right mixed bag of hard-packed trail, turfy sandy bog and large boulders, moss-covered tree-roots and some hill reps to finish 1 hour 10 for that little lot and now the sun is shining too
you're right, CC. i probably won't even get an interview
fab run on tough terrain, too. it does make such a difference when the sun shines. looking at the forecast for the next week it looks GREY GREY GREY. argh!!!
lungs really are feeling surprisingly good. i am thinking of going along to a bootcamp thing tonight in the local comprehensive school. never done anything like that before but thinking it won't do me any harm. since i can't run... i probably won't be able to walk tomorrow if i do go to it tonight mind you!
so far i have written one section of my report (the scope) and one line of my findings. tis not going particularly well. argh!
caro - maybe he needs to go a few times just to get the hang of how to do the exercises? once he knows how to do it perhaps you could nag him to do them at home?
is hubby going to be well enough to go out on the lash then?!
i am sure there must be a way around the money situation with the CTFs. both of mine will get them when they are 18 or whatever it is. i shan't be impressed if they pee them up a wall! i am thinking it's uni money or deposit money for a house or whatever. but i'm not sure how you control it!!
if i got the cardiff uni job, i would be taking a big pay cut on my full time salary. going back to what i was paid 8 years ago...
I think that's my main worry CM, that you can't control what they spend it on...it is legally theirs to do what they like with, and lets face it...when I was 18 the last thing I wanted to do was put a deposit on a house. If it was spent on Uni, travelling or house that is fine...but that is why I keep hold of the purse strings!!
My worry about home birth is if something goes wrong. The midwife has said that we are only a 15 minute ambulance ride away but still... Less importantly I am worried about the mess, as we rent and the carpets are cream!! I have the scan a week on Monday so will see how I am feeling then... hopefully I will feel a lot calmer about the whole giving birth thing.
Glad your walk went ok with no coughing and wheezing. Maybe its damp weather kicking it off?
CC, your run sounds lovely. I am looking forward to getting out and running in the air again. I so miss the fresh air I got from running. I hope your 20 miler goes well...enjoy! I've just done an hour in the gym...it just doesn't cut it though
Have a good evening in with your friend Caro. We are out tomorrow after sorting the babies room for a greek while my friend has L over night.
Hi EF...how are you feeling?!
i was very sensible at that age and would have invested it. i guess i will have to brow beat my kids in the same way...
i had a very straightforward first birth and J was nearly born in the back of the car on the way to the birthing centre so for me it was easier to plan a home birth than worry about whether we would get to hospital on time. the birthing centre i went to the first time wasn't attached to a hospital so if i had needed transferring it would have been a longer ambulance ride to get to the hospital than it would have been from home to the hospital.
my waters went as i was pushing E out and they had meconium in them. if they had broken earlier and there had been meconium, we would have been sent to hospital. sometimes i think things work out whatever you choose. i firmly believe both times that i went into labour at the weekend because my body knew that if i went into labour in the week, i wouldn't be able to get hold of T as he would have been at work and he doesn't answer his phone when i ring it (no change there).
for me there was no doubt in my mind about having a home birth if the presentation and circumstances allowed it because of my experience first time round. but if you have any worries at all i would say it's not for you. you have to be relaxed in your mind knowing it's the right choice - then you are most likely to have a stress-free birth. if you are worrying about the transfer then (in my opinion) you are probably more likely to need one.
i don't normally believe all this fatalistic clap-trap but somehow when it comes to giving birth it seems that things do just work out one way or another!
Yeah I agree. Its all about the right hormones etc allowing the body to give birth. I just need to chill about it. I think ignorance first time round was indeed bliss! Even though the first birth was quick and straight forward, I guess I know about the pain this time round!
RF - i've never done a bootcamp so am 'lalala' about the gasping for air bit. also walking there and back - over a mile each way. guess that may prove to be a mistake on the way back. hahaha!
i have been watching OBEM again. easier when there is no bloke in the house tutting about me watching it. i also have a strange and guilty fascination with all those 'i didn't know i was pregnant' programmes. less so with the 'i'm pregnant and ... my husband is a woman' ones but i will also watch those if there's nothing else on. now - my secret is out. i watch next to no TV - maybe an hour or so twice a week, but i always look for those sorts of programmes! dunno what it says about me
just been to asda to buy J some new daps (size 3!!) and wellies. argh. bumped into T and the kids there, which was initially lovely. loads of hugs and shouts of 'mummy. my beautiful mummy' from both of them. and then i had to leave, obviously - i was on my way out and they were on their way in. oh god E clung to me, screaming 'i hate daddy. i want to stay with mummy'. and everyone was looking at me as i walked off. it was awful.
I planned to have a homebirth first time round and was greeted with a multitude of "you're mad" reactions, but the midwives all encourage homebirths. I was worried about something going wrong and in the end I did have to go in an ambulance while fully dilated, but that was because the useless midwives thought Sophie was breech when she wasn't. In the end though, I think I got the best of both worlds - lovely relaxed labour at home in a pool then the messy bit and stitches in hospital!
With Nicky, hubby didn't want another homebirth (not his choice, I always thought ) but also I didn't want Sophie to see me writhing in agony or anything and thought it easier to just go to hospital. I really didn't like labouring in hospital though - I felt very self-conscious (silly I know) and not relaxed.
So I'm not sure what I'd advise - I think if your pregnancy has been risk-free then go for the home birth. After all, you're only 15 mins from the hospital (as I was). I think every birth has a risk but the midwives and other staff seem very well prepared for every eventuality. My friend has had both her girls at home and I do envy her!
Sorry for the waffle - hope it makes sense!
I have a question for you knowledgeable girls too - as I am working part-time now, do I need to inform CHB people? And Child Tax Credits which I no longer qualify for? Working Tax Credits? I have no idea how you even qualify for these things!
Right, I think I have decided I will go to the birthing centre... then all being well I can go home same day... I have the same kind of thinking as you Vixo. Will discuss with hubby anyway. Thanks for everyones thoughts on the subject. I am NOT watching OBEM at the moment...
I can't believe how some people don't know they are pregnant and it fascinates me too CM. When I was booking my presentation scan in the hospital a afro/caribbean lady came in asking for a scan...she was quite clearly about 6 months pregnant and had not had a scan before and had no idea how far along she was... not that I was listening or anything! Crazy. It's those people who say, "well I thought I had a tummy ache and out popped a baby" WHHAAT?!
for me the choice was a bit easier because i definitely did NOT want to go into the gwent (our local hospital). JT will understand why... that is why i chose the birthing centre in caerphilly - which was actually a very long way from where i lived at the time. it was at least a 30 min drive, and also a similar transfer from there to hospital (no hospital attached to birthing centre) as JT will know. she was bluelighted from caerphilly with Ted.
the second time round it made absolutely no sense to go back to caerphilly because of the length of the drive to get there and the fact that we would need to sort childcare for J. i was simply too worried that, by the time we had found someone to have J if it was the middle of the night, we wouldn't make it to caerphilly. so that swayed my decision to try for a home birth. we could have J at home with us until i really couldn't cope any longer which gave us time to sort out someone to have him. in the event, E arrived at 11am on a saturday morning so the timing was perfect. he went to his friend's house down the lane at about 9.30am and came home again at 1. and if i had to be blue-lighted in, it's only a 10-15 min transfer to hospital, less than from the birthing centre.
anyway, i think you have to go with what your gut says about these things. for me it wasn't so much about the idea of having a hippy home birth. it was more the practicality and not wanting to be pushing in the car!!
just survived bootcamp. lungs weren't brilliant but i seem to have recovered. but oh my actual good god - what a workout that is!!

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Hazelnut - SUPER SWEET!
Facts about Hazelnut - SUPER SWEET
- Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier/Vizsla Mix
- Color: Red/Golden/Orange/Chestnut
- Age: Young
- Size: Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
- Sex: Female
Hazelnut - SUPER SWEET's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with dogs, and not good with cats.
Hi, I'm Hazelnut, but you can call me Hazel. I am 2 years old and most likely a Vizsla or Wemeriner/Staffordshire Terrier mix. I have a gorgeous coat. I am spayed and up to date on all my shots. I was living a typical home life when my owner fell victim to the housing crisis and I ended up in the Camarillo shelter. Thankfully a rescue volunteer got me out and I am now being fostered on a ranch. I respond quickly to women but after just a few days here have bonded with my foster dad. He is working with me in this new environment and wow, have I learned a lot. The horses, donkey and cattle are curious animals. I am learning to keep an eye out for all of those legs. There are many other dogs here and I get along with all of them, but not the cats. I like to play ball and am not much of a barker, except of course when necessary, like when a stranger comes into the yard. I am housebroken and spend my evenings lounging on the couch with my foster family. If you don't have a ranch, it's ok. I can adapt to your home too. I would like another dog friend or two though. My foster family says no hamsters, mice, cats or rats.
Ask for me, I'm Hazel!
To apply for Hazel or any other Labs and Friends.Org dog, please email email@example.com for an application or go to www.labsandfriends.org to download one. Applications can be emailed or faxed to 818-351-8148. No cover sheet is needed. Phone calls cannot always be returned in a timely manner so email is best.

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Hazelnut - SUPER SWEET, a Burbank American Pit Bull Terrier/Vizsla dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a American Pit Bull Terrier/Vizsla for sale in Burbank, or seeking a American Pit Bull Terrier/Vizsla dog from a breeder in Burbank.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Burbank already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Burbank breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even American Pit Bull Terrier/Vizsla breeders who help with American Pit Bull Terrier/Vizsla rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Burbank paves the way for another one to be saved.

This thread is the result of the other .30-30 thread.
Winchester Model 54 .30-30 Carbine w/20" barrel
This handy and very accurate little rifle was acquired from my good friend Cres Lawson, a long time shooting bud who was 50 years older than I. He bought it brand new from William Crites gun shop in San Antonio, Texas after Christmas in 1928, just before he and his dad left for their annual month long deer hunt at their ranch in Mexico. Cres wanted a handy rifle for use on horseback. He told me that Mr. Crites had a dozen or so of the Model 54 .30-30 carbines on the rack in the shop that were received on clearance from Winchester. They were marked $30 and Cres traded a Savage Model 20 bolt action .250-3000 and $10 that he'd borrowed from his mother for this rifle. He mounted a Lyman aperture sight on it which makes it so much more effective in use.
He shot two deer with it right off, the day after their arrival to the ranch. He'd slipped up on a couple of bucks browsing. The first dropped in its tracks and the second only looked at his fallen comrade and kept browsing so Cres took it as well, its body falling across the first one. After 12 years and quite a few deer, he last used it in deer season of 1940 in Gillespie County, Texas, one more taking two deer at the same time.
At the end of January 1929, the day before they were to leave on the train to return from Mexico to their home in San Antonio, Cres took this little rifle and hiked over to an adjoining ranch, which was also owned by an American, to say goodbye. The fellow said that he'd been seeing a large buck in a field in late afternoon and would Cres like to take it. Cres was up for it so they saddled up a couple of the rancher's horses and rode out to the field. Sure enough when they arrived this great buck was in the field. Cres asked the rancher if the horse was fine with a rifle being discharged from the saddle. The rancher said yes so Cres essayed a shot at the buck, killing him. Cres didn't get the satisfaction of observing the bullet strike because, as he said:
"The next thing I knew I was completely prone in mid air with my rifle sailing off towards Jones."
Scrambling to his feet as the horse continued to buck away, he complained to the rancher who was laughing uproariously.
"I thought you said I could shoot from astride your horse".
"Well you can...once" came the reply as the rancher howled with glee, the tears streaming down his cheek.
Cres looked around for his new rifle, chagrined to see it stobbed muzzle down in the soft earth with it's butt stock sticking straight up at the sky.
They field dressed the buck, loaded him up on a hired hand's convenient mule and headed back towards home, the rancher just completely dissolved in laughter.
This region was mostly jungle and they were traversing a portion of it to return to the ranch house. The rancher was still chuckling and poking fun at Cres but not paying attention to his horse which had veered off the jungle path and stopped abruptly in front of some thick brush. The rancher kicked up the horse to force him on through the brush and both horse and rider suddenly disappeared from Cres' view. It was as the earth had swallowed him up.
Immediately though Cres became aware of a tremendous thrashing and flailing about along with a monumental barrage of cussin' all coming from out of the ground. It seems that the rancher inattentively compelled his horse to dive into one of the many sink holes common to the locale. He sent his horse headlong into a 12 foot deep pit full of tangled brush.
Cres felt that it was some justice for the treatment he'd received earlier and razzed the rancher for the remainder of the ride back to the hacienda.
The Winchester Model 54 is the immediate predecessor to the more famous pre-64 Model 70. Around 50,000 were made altogether which makes it many times less common than the pre-64 Model 70. Despite this there is not nearly the collector interest in the Model 54. The Model 54 was not popular in .30-30 since it could also be had in .30-06 and .270 and the carbine is an uncommon variation so the combination of the two is quite scarce. Cres told me that the only other Model 54 .30-30 carbines he ever saw were in the hands of some guards in a Mexican prison in the mid 1930s. He said their rifles were in absolutely wretched condition. I never got around to asking him what he was doing in a Mexican prison.
I must have seen one of these rifles at a Dallas gun show some years ago. It was gray metal and rust with a broken and repaired stock that looked all dried and shrunken. The integral front sight was worn down to a nub and would have been useless for sighting the rifle. The rear sight was missing it's elevator. The bore had that newly plowed field look about it, all ravaged by corrosive priming and neglect. That's the only other .30-30 chambered Winchester Model 54 carbine I've ever seen.
This rifle is an outstanding stalking rife in the spirit of the traditional European rifles. It carries wonderfully in the crook of one's arm and may be shouldered and fired in an instant. I took one buck by working through a long section of a river bottom. Took me most of the morning to traverse the mesquite scrub but a nice buck taken at 40 yards made for a rewarding hunt.
This rifle has the smoothest bore I've ever seen. One may fire several boxes of jacketed bullets through it and clean it in a jiffy with no copper fouling to contend with. With careful sighting off the bench rest I've obtained five-shot groups of 1 1/2-inches along with a single 1 1/4-inch group at 100 yards. In hunting with this rifle I've taken four deer at ranges from 25 yards to 130 yards. I've always used Sierra 170 grain flat nosed bullets.
I assumed it'd be tailor-made for use with spitzer bullets since it is fed from the box magazine but it wants no part of them. I've tried seating bullets out and also various seating depths but it won't shoot them like it will the 150 and 170 grain flat nose bullets made for the lever action .30-30s. It'll even handle the 125 grain flat nose that Sierra made (may still make them) to useful velocity and with good accuracy.
It'd likely be a great cast bullet shooter but I've not explored that aspect of shooting it. It would also be a great rifle to try some of the Hornady Leverevolution 160 grain ammunition that Raevan mentions in the other .30-30 thread but I've not yet taken the opportunity. In the strong Model 54 bolt action it's said that one may get away with experimentation with hand loads that exceed that which a lever gun can safely handle but that would be against the spirit of using a classic .30-30 for hunting in my view.
I've taken lots of deer and seen many more taken with a host of different rounds. The .30-30 will work just as effectively as will the hottest magnum. An observer won't be able to tell the difference in a deer shot with a .30-30 and one shot with a magnum rifle by looking at the carcasses.

Forget about the olden days when labels mattered: Atlantic, Stax, Matador, and Sub Pop. Now artists can release their records on Procter & Gamble's Tag deodorant label!
A few months ago, Bacardi announced that it would help the English electronic music duo Groove Armada pay for and promote its next release. Caress, the body-care line owned by Unilever, commissioned the Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger to record a version of Duran Duran's "Rio" that it gave away on its Web site to promote its "Brazilian body wash" product. The energy drink company Red Bull is starting a label that is expected to release music before the end of the year.
Next: soap companies will sponsor daytime TV dramas.
For rent: strip malls
The Journal reports on A3 that vacancies at strip malls jumped to 8.2 percent in the second quarter, their highest level since 1995.
That's a bad sign of consumer health and evidence that the retail industry overbuilt in the last few years. As new neighborhoods are built, new strip malls get developed close to them. Lots of those neighborhoods are half-empty and the new shops have fewer customers than they expected.
Enclosed malls hit their highest empty level in more than six years.

This fact sheet describes Indiana's proposed 1115 waiver demonstration, HIP 2.0, which seeks to implement the Affordable Care Act's (ACA) Medicaid expansion.
This state report explains how the ACA expands coverage in Indiana, including a breakdown of how many uninsured people are eligible for Medicaid, how many are eligible for financial assistance to help them buy private insurance in the new Marketplace and how many will not receive any financial assistance at all. The report also details, in specific dollar figures, the income levels at which people in Indiana are eligible for Medicaid or financial assistance in the Marketplace. For states not expanding Medicaid, the report quantifies how many uninsured people fall into the "coverage gap," meaning they will be ineligible for financial assistance in the Marketplace or for Medicaid in their state despite having an income below the federal poverty level.

.- Marking the first time the statue has ever left its sanctuary in Bethlehem, the original wooden sculpture of the "Little Child" Jesus was brought by its guardian, Fr. Jerzy Kraj, to the Sanctuary of St. Giovanni Rotondo on Thursday. During its visit, the statue will be taken to the children's cancer ward of a hospital founded by St. Padre Pio.
"With immense joy," announced the Capuchin Minor Friars among whom Saint Pio lived, "we will live here, in San Giovanni Rotondo, a 'great event of faith.' "
"We'll live again the profound devotion of Padre Pio," they exclaimed in an official release for the arrival of the baby Jesus figure.
According to friars, "the idea of this initiative was born during a pilgrimage to Bethlehem guided last October by... (the) rector of the sanctuary, in memory of the profound devotion of Padre Pio of Pietralcina for that which he called 'the divine Infant.'"
After clearing the idea with the Custos of the Holy Land, Fr. Pierbattista Pizzaballa, plans were made for the pilgrimage.
The statue arrived by helicopter on Thursday afternoon to be welcomed by the Capuchin superiors and the mayor of San Giovanni Rotondo, later it was taken to Our Lady of Grace Shrine, where a Eucharistic celebration was held.
From Jan. 28 to Feb. 6, the "original and sacred statue of the Little Child of Bethlehem" will be in, and around, the Our Lady of Grace Shrine at San Giovanni Rotondo.
At least six official pilgrimages are planned by area parishes and schools while the sculpture is there.
The statue will also be taken in for a night at the Convent of the cloistered Capuchin Clarisse Sisters on Jan. 31, and on the night of Feb. 3 it will be at the House for the Relief of Suffering, the hospital founded by St. Pio. On its way back from the "House" to Our Lady of Grace the next morning, it will be taken through the pediatric oncology wing of the hospital, which is named after Pope John Paul II.
After a solemn Mass on the evening of Feb. 6, the statue will be take to Rome and then back to Bethlehem the next morning.
The statue was made in Olot, Spain in 1921 for the sanctuary in Bethlehem.

PJM Interconnection Goes Live With World's Most Advanced Grid Management System
Wednesday, December 14, 2011
PJM Interconnection Goes Live With World's Most Advanced Grid Management System09:00 EST Wednesday, December 14, 2011The PJM Advanced Control Center (AC2) program integrates state-of-the-art, large-scale energy management systems using the Siemens/PJM Shared Architecture integration platformATLANTA, Dec. 14, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- PJM Interconnection (PJM) has put into production the world's most advanced energy management system, the PJM Advanced Control Center (AC2) program, based on the Siemens/PJM Shared Architecture integration platform. PJM uses the system to manage North America's largest transmission grid.(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20070904/SIEMENSLOGO) This program includes the Siemens Spectrum Power? energy management system (EMS) running at two different sites, with each site fully functional and capable of running the grid either independently or as a single virtual control center. A Web-enabled user interface framework provides situational awareness, with capabilities for advanced visualization of data from either site. PJM is the only grid operator in North America, and one of the few worldwide, to have dual primary control centers. The AC2 program, through the implementation of two fully staffed primary control centers, better ensures reliability and the uninterrupted operation of markets and grid control if functionality were lost at either center."This is a formidable breakthrough for grid operators around the world; we now have proven that innovative IT technology, such as service oriented architecture, can be adapted to high performance mission critical environments for the Smart Grid. It also provides a CIM-compliant and secure model-driven integration platform for PJM's diverse set of EMS, MMS and legacy systems, allowing for improved flexibility, innovation and protection of PJM's IT investment," said Jan Mrosik, chief executive officer of the global Smart Grid Division within the Siemens Infrastructure & Cities Sector."From the beginning of system design, PJM sought to integrate security controls, scalability and flexibility into a new generation of systems to enhance grid reliability and sustain wholesale power market innovations," said Terry Boston, PJM president and chief executive officer. "That led us to the idea of a new shared architecture platform so that our systems could easily grow with our members and adapt to new technologies."The AC2 systems are built on top of the Siemens/PJM Shared Architecture platform. The Shared Architecture is a standards-based, secure integration platform for technologically diverse EMS, market management (MMS) and distribution management (DMS) systems.This open, modern architecture, built on an enterprise services bus (ESB), enables the rapid integration of traditional utility applications and emerging Smart Grid applications, providing flexibility and choices for utilities that had previously been inhibited by their legacy control center application providers. The proven, innovative approach also promises reduced application migration risk, investment protection and enables faster innovation throughout the energy industry.Siemens and PJM will be seeking other interested industry participants to further advance modern integration Smart Grid platforms and contribute to the development of integration standards for Smart Grid architectures.PJM Interconnection is a regional transmission organization (RTO) that coordinates the movement of wholesale electricity in all or parts of Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia and the District of Columbia. Acting as a neutral, independent party, PJM operates a competitive wholesale electricity market and manages the high-voltage electricity grid to ensure reliability for more than 58 million people.

High Jobless Rate in Illinois

Durbin Pushing for Unemployment Assistance
U-S Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) said one of his first priorities when the Senate reconvenes will be to call for an extension of unemployment benefits.
Durbin said 83,000 Illinoisans lost unemployment benefits on January 1.
"By the end of the year, 230,000 unemployed people in our state will be cut off from unemployment benefits," Durbin told reporters during a news conference outside his home.
Republicans have called extension of unemployment a "Band-Aid," done at the expense of a more long-term solution to help people succeed.
But Durbin said this is the same thinking that's led Republicans to block spending on food assistance and oppose an increase in the minimum wage.
"They feel that if people are not doing well economically, it's because they're lazy. I disagree. I think a lot of people are working very, very hard, and can't keep up with the increased cost of living," Durbin said.
Years after the end of the recession, Illinois continues to have one of the worst unemployment rates in the country.

Bibasilar atelectasis is the collapse of tiny air pockets in the lungs. The symptoms are fever, cough and shortness of breath and it is usually associated with pneumonia, COPD and asthma.
Atelectasis is the collapse of part or (much less commonly) all of a lung.
See also:
Partial lung collapse
Atelectasis is caused by a blockage of the air passages (bronchus or bronchioles) or by pressure on the outside of the lung.
It is common after surgery, or in patients who were in the hospital.
Risk factors for developing atelectasis include:

What the difference between these two valves and can they be used for home brewing? $25 - http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-JOMAR-1-2-SS...item414d832b12 $15 - http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-JOMAR-1-2-CS...item414d5e650e
Subscribed. I went to JOMAR's webpage and saw their product decriptions for both valves one is Stainless and one is Carbon. Both have the same UL certifications and descriptions. However Carbon steel can still rust so I would go for the SS one. However I would like to hear more from other pros around.
Primary : Honeybuns Weizen, Ode to Arthur(with partial sour) Secondary: Bottled: Cream of Three Crops, Hazed and Infused Clone Planned: A green chile beer, I live in New Mexico gotta have the green chile beer.
Stainless Steel is the one you want. Carbon Steel WILL rust, esp in acidic conditions. And fast, too. If you want cheaper ss ball valves for homebrewing you can get 2 piece from http://www.greatbargain.net/order/index.html
They both won't work for you. The carbon steel will rust and the stainless one is socket weld (NO THREADS).
i've never ordered from these guys, but they have ss 3 piece valves for the cheapest i've been able to findhttp://climaxhomebrew.com/

Posted On: Jan. 10, 2014
Agile Development has been slow to gain traction in larger companies already used to traditional development models. There are undoubtably many horror stories of agile projects going awry or conversely Agile being hailed as a panacea for all problems with established practices.
Having recently had great success loosely adhering to the Story based method I wanted to highlight a particular benefit i'd experienced outside of the actual development - client interaction and engagement.
Starting the project with a short timeline and a business leery by experience of a bureaucratic turnaround presented some initial challenges that were overcome with some key commitments:
- Two week Sprint with defined and attainable goals chosen and approved by the stakeholders
o Visible and continual progress
- Inclusion of the entire project team in all conversations
o No surprises and everyone feels part of the solution
- Embracing development before all 'requirements' are understood
o Refinement is allowed
The result was a high level of engagement by all parties. The customers can see the product taking shape, they themselves are helping to iteratively build it and test as the sprints complete. Further cementing relationships was a commitment to visit in person and demonstrate all major milestones at the field locations significantly reducing perceptions of "them and us" and also "radio silence".
Our clients are the biggest advocates of the product, they're getting exactly what they asked for and they helped make it.

French Tart's Note:
This is my Dad's recipe!!! Brilliant low fat & EASY roasted potato wedges with freshly ground black pepper and olive oil. I have also added garlic, lemon wedges, fresh thyme, fresh rosemary, cumin, chilli.......the list is endless! I have posted the basic recipe and it is obviously easy to add whatever you like, depending on the mood, season & type of meal you are serving. For example, rosemary is great with lamb dishes; thyme and oregano marries wonderfully with Italian & French cuisine; garlic and lemons are GREAT with roast chicken. The basic peppered recipe is still my favourite though - I use fleur de sel (local sea salt) in mine - but any coarse salt will be fine. I have given measurements for about 4 people......it is easily adapted up or down however!
My Private Note
Units: US | Metric
- 2 lbs roasting potatoes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- fresh ground black pepper
- sea salt
- 1Pre-heat oven to 220 C or 450°F.
- 2Wash and scrub your potatoes well - no need to peel them!
- 3Cut them into chunky wedges.
- 4Place in a ziplock bag or plastic container and add the olive oil & black pepper.
- 5Do NOT add the salt now as it encourages water!
- 6Shake the container or bag well - making sure every potato wedge has been covered in oil.
- 7Place peppered potatoes in a large and sturdy oven proof roasting tin - shake around to ensure they are in a single layer, more or less!
- 8Sprinkle on the sea salt and any herbs & spices you may be using.
- 9Give another good twist of ground black pepper over the potato wedges and roast in the oven for about 45 - 60 minutes or until crispy and brown!
- 10Sprinkle over any fresh herbs, if you are using them for a garnish or just serve "au natural" as a vegetable accompaniment.
- 11I often serve these in paper cornets for a light lunch or supper time snack with vinegar & sometimes, very naughty I KNOW, mayonnaise!

The Power of a Submissive Life
Monday, August 30, 2010
Sin so often seeks to do two things—
itself and
itself. Here's an example: we've heard those stories in which an unbelieving or disobedient husband makes life miserable for his Christian wife. We've also heard the world's counsel to those women—"You deserve better than this! Leave the bum! God doesn't expect you to submit to
! Take the kids and move out!" Can you hear the appeal to sin in those recommendations?

The Submissive Wife
Wednesday, August 25, 2010
The issue of authority and submission in the home—especially wives submitting to their husbands—is not appealing to our fallen culture. The world responds with ridicule, resistance and even rejection. Of course we expect those kinds of reactions from people hostile to divine authority; but what happens when the
falls prey to that mindset?

The Submissive Family
Sunday, August 22, 2010
What makes a family
? Is it authority—a firm-ruling father who keeps the peace? Activity—weekly date nights and regular family outings? Availability—members who make time for one another? According to Scripture, a key ingredient for a successful family is
. Society scoffs at the very mention of the word, but God places submission at the top of His list for a unified family. John MacArthur explains . . .

The First Attack on Family
Thursday, August 19, 2010
After God created the first couple and brought them together in the first marriage ceremony, there was perfect harmony, fellowship, and joy. Adam had a wife to fellowship with; the two of them exercised dominion together. Eve had her husband to protect, provide, and care for her. All was well in Eden, for the moment . . .

The First Family
Monday, August 16, 2010
No sane Christian questions the origin of the family. The Bible lays it out before us in unambiguous terms.
created the family—period. But
? God answered that question in the Old Testament long before any New Testament writers took up their pen. To get the divine perspective on the family, we have to go back,
back, to the very beginning.

The Spirit-Filled Family
Friday, August 13, 2010
Where do you turn when your family is in trouble? Some confide in a friend; others call a marriage "expert," like a pastor or counselor. Many people in the world consult a psychologist, only to come away with theories and five-step plans; or more commonly, they call a psychiatrist and get themselves a prescription.
God's Word has a lot to say about the family, and it'll get to the bottom of all your trouble. Listen as John MacArthur explains . . .

Raising Your Family in Sodom
Wednesday, August 11, 2010
Although we've noticed the steady, pebble-by-pebble crumbling of the family for decades, we're now watching the landslide. We live in an age where society is no longer content to simply ignore the sanctity of marriage and the family—it attacks it with a vengeance.

A Look at the Christian Home
Sunday, August 08, 2010
Today marks the launch of a brand new series on the
Grace To You
blog on the family. One of the reasons we extended the creation series over several months was due to the intensity of opposition to the biblical view of origins, not just by the world, but by members of the professing church. The Bible's teaching on the family, closely related to the doctrine of creation, has likewise been attacked and subverted from the very beginning, since Genesis 3. John explains . . .

The Final Word
Sunday, August 01, 2010
Among the many issues discussed in this creation series, one emerges as central—the final authority of God's Word. Not only is God's Word
to answer our most challenging questions about origins, it is
to every other explanation. When Scripture speaks, it speaks with the full weight of divine authority. Science, archeology, and any other system of study must bow the knee. Check out John's article as he explains . . .

Bucky's BBQ owner Wayne Preston honed his craft at a young age, spending boyhood afternoons in his father's meat-packing plant and Wednesday nights preparing suppers for his local church. Word about Wayne's saucy ribs and pulled pork spread shortly after he founded his own roadside barbecue stand, forcing him—like the barbecue-sauce barons of years past—to expand his operations to new frontiers. Today, each of Bucky's four locations fashions heaping plates of never-frozen Boston butt, tender chicken, and St. Louis–style ribs in the traditional country style: hand-rubbed with secret seasonings and slow-cooked over a smoky fire of hickory chips. Five house-made sauces garnish slices of juicy meat served alongside traditional sides of baked beans, coleslaw, and sweet potatoes. When they aren't dishing out meals in the restaurant, Bucky's tireless staff serves parties, formal events, weddings, and flash mobs as large as 1,500 people with fully catered barbecue feasts.
Established in 2009, Mojo's Famous Burgers mingles classic American eats with rockabilly music and décor inspired by tattoo art at two locations. The menu harkens to '50s diner fare with hand-cut onion rings, old-fashioned milk shakes, and build-your-own burgers with two patty sizes. A selection of specialty burgers crowns premium aged beef with toppings inspired by regional flavors—Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Philly, or Hawaiian style—and the chef's favorite natural disaster. The eatery's wall of fame commemorates diners who chowed through a food challenge featuring quadruple cheeseburgers or loaded foot-long hot dogs.
Fu of Kyoto's chefs speedily serve up a delectable roster of traditional sushi rolls and Japanese entrees. Tongues can practice for the main meal by first unwrapping pork or vegetable dumplings ($3.15) and ponder why the eight-piece Rainbow roll's tuna, salmon, and cucumber ($4.39) haven't been added to the visible-color spectrum. Teriyaki-infused bites of chicken ($4.95) or eel ($6.85) caper through fried rice in one of Fu's rice bowls, and the hibachi-grilled fillet steak and jumbo shrimp ($8.99) spurn the centuries-old feud between their families by courting in a thicket of vegetables.
A community-minded hideaway of hospitality, P. Simpson's is helmed by chef Patrick Hartnett, who crafts his delectable lunch, dinner, brunch (beginning November 28), and dessert menus using locally sourced and organic ingredients whenever possible. Should the ambrosial selection of Spanish-style small plates ($3.58–$8.58), steaks ($17.59–$24.59), and seafood ($16.59–$21.59) fail to evoke a Pavlovian response or meet special dietary requirements, the restaurant's gracious gastro gurus are also happy to customize plates to cater to persnickety palates. Discerning ears and auricular kneecaps can place special requests for live tunes on Fridays.
Against the idyllic backdrop of a renovated, 101-year-old Victorian house, Elegant Gourmet Cafe and Catering's owner and chef Geno Portele crafts lush dishes and desserts that can sate appetites at the eatery or during catered events. A daily lunch menu lists sandwiches and salads compiled with such ingredients as lemon-pesto mayonnaise, sugared pecans, and bread dipped in orange batter. Though the café does not offer a kids' menu, parents are welcome to bring their own meals and Heroes of Tax Reform coloring books for their children.
Chef Portele also outfits fetes of all types with custom catering menus loaded with ingredients such as applewood-smoked roast beef and imported cheeses. The eatery's picturesque facilities serve as the arena for merrymaking festivities. A spacious front porch wraps around the historic building, which comprises four separate dining areas peppered with art-deco décor. Indoor-outdoor bashes utilize a cushy reception tent that accommodates up to 250 guests or one replica of the Sphinx. To further simplify party planning, staffers can help procure music, decorations, and cakes.
In 1964, brothers Leroy and Forrest Raffel banded together to come up with a new restaurant concept. Arby's took off almost immediately on the coattails of its hallmark roast-beef sandwich and the founders' idea of providing customers with fast, quality food. Over the company's 48-year franchise history, its foundational pièce de résistance of thinly sliced, juicy beef has been served in a many permutations, and continues to be popular today, served at more than 3,500 stores in North America. Today's menu still ignites appetites with traditional beef sandwiches, plus hot and seasoned curly fries, fresh-chopped salads, and desserts good for richly capping off meals or bribing any bridge trolls on the way home.

A group of rebels are the only ones who know Demetrio and his company's true
intentions, and will do everything it takes to bring the truth to light about the person who
pretends to be their eternal benefactor. It will not be easy or agreeable, but the danger
behind what Prometheus hides within is a threat to all. Stopping Demetrio Watts is in the
hands of a group of unknowns. Depends on Arcturus.
Project Root takes place along 8 open levels where the player can move freely to complete several primary, secondary and hidden bonus objectives. The free camera system allows the player to make different strategies to complete the objectives, to attack or defend different positions. - WEAPONS
The player has two main weapons to strike aerial or ground targets along with several powerful but limited secondary weapons, like rockets, homing missiles, lasers, and more. Defensive elements like a shield and flares are available too. Every type of weapon can be upgraded with certain power ups that can be picked up along each mission or purchased as the player gains more experience.

On the second floor (no elevator/lift) at the back of the house overlooking gardens of birch trees, this apartment has a large (18' X 22') main room, an eat-in, well equipped, windowed kitchen, and a generous bathroom with a floor length window.
The kitchen has a 4 chair dining table, while the living/dining room has its own six chair formal dining table, Murphy bed, sofa and armchairs.
A closet area off the living /dining room towards the middle of the building houses the second Murphy bed, a dresser and clothes hangers that can be closed off by two massive original sliding doors.
The apartment has its own Wifi internet connection and satellite DirecTV servicing a 34' TV screen.
The house: The building itself, an 1892 Brownstone five-story jewel, is located right on the cross town bus route, between the two subway lines serving the West side of Manhattan. The close subway and bus access means that the rest of the City - MOMA, Lincoln Center, the Empire State building, United Nations, Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, and the Theater District, for starters, are just a few minutes away. It's across Columbus Avenue from the new Planetarium and the old Museum of Natural History. Being a block from Central Park means that a few minutes walk gets you to the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the other Museum Mile occupants on Fifth Avenue.
Eating and drinking: Going the other way out the door gets you to Zabar's famous delicatessen and, down Broadway a bit, Fairway supermarket with its extensive fish, meat and fruit and vegetable markets. Good wine stores are common. For non-cookers, the sheer number and ethnic variety of restaurants within only a few blocks is huge.
I like renovating old buildings and this one is a jewel.
"My parents were in the diplomatic service, so I was bounced around the world every two years. I wanted to settle down after Columbia College, so I bought this house."
My house is a five-story,1892 townhouse on the Upper West Side of Manhattan that I bought 45 years ago. I had the ornate brownstone facade restored recently. It has eight apartments in it (I occupy the garden apartment), two of which I rent out as short term vacation homes. The house is part of a neighborhood of townhouses on the side streets, larger multiple dwellings on the avenues, occasional grand apartment buildings on Central Park West, and some notable institutions such as the Museum of Natural History and Lincoln Center dotted around the neighborhood. The area is well served by buses and subways, with a high population of restaurants of many different ethnicities and varying levels of sophistication. No area in Manhattan - be it the Theater District or the Village - is far away in time or difficult to reach.
